I suspect the sensitivity is such that the pen is actually moving when you click so the driver doesn't register as a click.
On my graphire 3 in windows there is a setting to change this behaviour but inkscape seems to ignore it as I think it reads the tablet directly it self when in any mode other than disabled.
Try holding the pen perpendicular to the tablet and see if you can click.
(This is the one reason I stopped using my tablet with inkscape except when using the calligraphy pen. )

I'm running yesterday's SVN build, but the same behavior I had now for over a year: With the graphics tablet (wacom graphire 4), when using the pen in "Screen" mode (or "Window" mode, both have the same results - only "Disabled" shows the normal behavior), I can use the pen to draw lines and move nodes (F2), but once I switch to move objects (F1), a click on an object does not select it, only double or multiple times tapping on it sometimes selects it for me to move it around. at the same time i can do the selecting and moving with the normal mouse as it was before.
So clearly something is off from the behavior in XInput in Screen mode, at least it seems the clicks (which are the taps on the tablet) are interpreted differently. Still, in all other modes (F2 'Node' mode, draw circles, squares etc.) the tablet in Screen mode works as expected.
Any ideas?
